About this study

Official title: The Effect of Head Position on Glottic Visualisation and Intubation Success With Videolaryngoscope in Obese Patients

In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of head and neck positions on the visualization of glottis and the success of intubation during videolaryngoscopy in obese patients.

Read the detailed description

Tree different head and neck positions will compare for glottic visualization and intubation success rates in obese patients (BMI> 30 kg / m2) who required endotracheal intubation for general anesthesia between 18-65 years of age.

Conditions
Intubation
Being tested
Mcgrath Mac Videolaryngoscope

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Glottic view

    the percentage of glottic opening (POGO) and cormack-lehane scores will be used to rate of the glottic view

    Measured: During laryngoscopy

  2. Intubation Success

    Intubation attempt number will be recorded

    Measured: During intubation

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Intubation difficulty

    Intubation Difficulty Scale(IDS) score will be recorded.The IDS score is derived from seven variables. N1 represents the number of additional intubation attempts, N2 represents the number of additional operators, N3 is the number of alternative intubation techniques used; N4 represents the laryngoscopic view, N5 represents the lifting force applied during laryngoscopy, N6 represents the necessity to apply external laryngeal pressure to optimize glottic exposure, N7 represents the mobility of vocal cord. The IDS score is the sum of all variables and ranges from zero to infinity. A score of 0 indicates an easy tracheal intubation. Intubation is considered difficult if the score is greater than 5.

    Measured: During Laryngoscopy

  2. Intubation time

    The duration of the endotracheal tube placement will be recorded

    Measured: During Intubation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Mcgrath Mac Videolaryngoscope in people with Intubation, run by Tokat Gaziosmanpasa University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jun 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Glottic view (time frame: During laryngoscopy). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Jun 2020.
